The people (of the Pre-Islamic Ignorance Period) used to think that to perform ' Umra during the months of Hajj was one of the major sins on earth. And also used to consider the month of Şafar as a forbidden (i.e. sacred) month and they used to say, "When the wounds of the camel's back heal up (after they return from Hajj) and the signs of those wounds vanish and the month of Şafar passes away then (at that time) ' Umra is permissible for the one who wishes to perform it." In the morning of the 4th of Dhul-Hijja, the Prophet (ﷺ) and his companions reached Makka, assuming for Hajj and he ordered his companions to make their intentions of the for ' Umra only (instead of Ḥajj) so they considered his order as something great and were puzzled, and said, "O Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ), what kind (of finishing) of Ihram is allowed?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "Finish the completely like a non-Muḥrim (you are allowed everything). [2:635-0.B.]
